I guess somebody could even get CMake to write Qbs files, it would just be
one more generator. :-)
This was done already
<https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/commit/f85db2f32358e6de921aba7d1cb8ecb81da934c0>,
but it was removed from CMake due to bad feedback from
Qt Creator people.
Is this feedback recorded somewhere?

Revert "Qbs: Add new 'extra' generator for qbs project files"
This reverts commit f85db2f32358e6de921aba7d1cb8ecb81da934c0.
Discussion by the QtCreator community at
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-13695
raises concerns about this particular approach to working with CMake
projects using QtCreator. Also, the functionality and design of the
QBS extra generator was never discussed on the CMake mailing list or
with QtCreator developers. There may be better ways to make the two
tools work together.
In order to avoid committing to long-term support of this generator
prior to such discussion taking place, revert it from CMake for now.
We may restore this or use an alternative design based on results of
such discussion.
Maybe "bad feedback" is strong, but it was non constructive and lead to
the removal of the Qbs generator.
Cheers,
Cristian.
